For the grade and type of race this doesn’t look a bad event with the Worcester bumper that three of this field ran in last time out possibly holding the key to the outcome. NICELY DONE was behind the other two protagonists from that race in Pure Affection and Oksana but she could well reverse that form having come on for the run and not having had the run of that contest. A Legal Beauty makes her debut here from a yard that usually have their runners tuned up for this sort of event with Secret Escape and Cut And Run two other debutantes who contribute some depth to this closing event on the card.
